It  has  often  occurred  to  me  that  there  is  an  absence  of  a  convenient  and 
descriptive  guide  to  the  Literature  of  that  period  of  American  history,  the 
Mexican  War,  during  which  a  great  number  of  our  brilliant  soldiers  stood 
their  fire-test.  It  will  likewise  be  noted,  that  in  searching  biographies  of, 
the  well-known  chieftains,  very  few  pages  are. devoted  to  their  services  in  the 
Mexican  War. 

With  the  exception  of  Prof.  Soley's  paper",  the  notes  in  Lamed 's*,  and  in 
Bancroft's  history^,  very  few  critical  or  descriptive  accounts  have  been  dis 
covered. 

It  is  true,  as  Lawson^  states  in  his  Essay,  that  the  greater  number  of 
histories,  narratives  and  lives  were  written  soon  after  the  close  of  that  war, 
when  the  mass  of  documentary  and  other  material  which  time  has  now  made 
accessible,  were  not  available  to  their  authors. 

In  the  case  of  General  Z.  Taylor  the  late  Prof.  Soley«  states:  "Of  Taylor 
we  have  no  considerable  or  well-studied  account,  and  we  must  depend  upon 
official  and  other  sources  for  this  part  of  the  war." 

The  facts  above  stated  have  influenced  me  to  attempt  a  selection  from  the 
abundance  of  material  available,  and  arranging  it  in  convenient  order  so  as 
to  make  it  helpful  to  the  student,  more  particularly  the  military  student. 

As  no  exhaustive  record  of  the  available  material  was  contemplated,  neither 
are  the  references  to  persons,  places  and  topics  found  in  the  index  exhaustive, 
they  are  intended  only  as  guides  to  further  study  and  search. 

"I  am  under  obligation  to  the  publishers  of  "Winsor's  Narrative  and  critical 
history  of  America"  for  permission  to  use  the  foot-notes  of  Prof.  Soley,  on 
whose  paper:  "The  Wars  of  the  United  States,  1789-1859, "«  my  selection 
of  titles  has  been  based,  and  to  the  Publishing  Board  of  the  American  Library 
Association,  allowing  me  to  use  the  foot-notes  of  the  late  Josephus  Nelson 
Lamed , found  in  his  "Literature  of  American  History."?' 

The  short  essay  by  Lawson^  was  of  some  help  to  me,  and  this,  together  with 
Soley.  Lamed,  Bancroft,  and  the  critical  articles  by  Hamilton  and  Lane  (titles 
of  the  latter  will  be  found  on  p.  13,  16)  is  ^recommended  for  study  to  tlwe 
military  student. 

I  have  appended  a  short  list  on  ' '  Modern  Mexico, ' '  believing  the  same  to 
be  of  general  interest. 

Full  title-entries,  as  preferred  by  the  Library  of  Congress  in  cataloguing 
for  their  catalogs  and  bibliographies,  were  used,  as  far  as  possible,  and  a 
large  number  of  books  listed  have  been  carefully  examined  and  in  part 
analyzed,  more  particularly  for  the  benefit  of  readers  remote  from  Library 
facilities. 

Persons  and  libraries  using  the  Library  of  Congress  cards  for  their  catalogs 


will  find  the  serial  numbers  of  these  cards  below  the  foot-notes,  or  below  the 
title  of  each  entry,  on  the  left  side.  The  number  next  to  this  is  the  call- 
number  needed  when  borrowing  books  from  the  Library  of  Congress,  and  the 
initials  on  the  same  line,  viz:  A.  W.  C.;  E.  S.;  W.  D.  show  that  a  given  book 
may  be  had  from  the  Libraries  of  the  Army  War  College,  Engineer  School,  or 
War  Department.  The  absence  of  such  notes  shows  that  the  work  is  not 
found  at  present  in  any  of  the  above-mentioned  libraries  in  Washington. 

The  U.  S.  Congressional  documents  listed  may  nearly  all  be  found  in  the 
libraries  mentioned,  in  that  case  it  is  customary  to  use  the  "serial-number" 
as  a  call-number,  and  this  will  be  found  added  to  every  entry. 

Readers  searching  for  Moxican  material,  and  more  especially  for  Mexican 
documents,  are  referred  to  the  Bibliography  on  Mexico  by  the  New  York  Public 
Library." 

While  great  care  has  been  taken  to  avoid  errors  they  may,  however,  be  found, 
and  readers  who  have  studied  the  subject  more  exhaustively  will  confer  a  favor 
in  calling  my  attention  to  the  same. 

The  work  herewith  presented  was  performed  out  of  office  hours,  and  as  a 
labor  of  love.  It  is  intended,  primarily,  for  the  men  in  charge  of  our  National 
defense  with  the  hope  that  it  may  be  of  some  assistance  to  them  in  the  per 
formance  of  their  duties.

of  the  government  of  California  by  peaceful  means,  whose  ef 
forts,  it  seems  apparent,  were  thwarted  by  the  precipitate  con 
duct  of  Stockton  and  Fremont.  There  has  been  a  good  deal  of 
mystery  about  the  exact  terms  of  bis  instructions  from  the  gov

Martin  Hume.)  Title  in  red  and  black. 
Bibliography:  p.  xxi-xxiii. 

Combined  history,  archaeology  and  description  based  on  read 
ing  and  travel.  The  author  has  not  availed  himself  of  the  latest 
scholarship  with  reference  to  the  Spanish  conquest,  but  his  later 
history  is  sound,  his  descriptions  of  modern  life  and  scenery 
picturesque,  and  he  gives  an  exhaustive  and  instructive  survey 
of  natural  resources  and  industrial  conditions.  The  book  is 
illustrated  by  admirable  photographs  and  has  an  annotated 
bibliography,  index  and  folding  map.  Covers  modern  condi 
tions  as  thoroughly  and  is  much  less  expensive  than  Martin's 
Mexico  of  the  20th  century  .  .  .,  is  much  more  popular  in  style 
and  would  prove  an  acceptable  substitute  on  modern  Mexico, 
but  contains  much  less  history.

86  Modern  Mexico. 

Romero,  Matias.  1837-1898.  Geographical  and  statistical  notes 
on  Mexico  by  Matias  Romero.  N.  Y.,  and  Lond.,  Putnams, 
1898.  xiv  p.,  1  1.,  286  p.,  pi.,  map.  26cm. 

Forms  also  p.  1-280  of  his  "Mexico  and  the  United  States," 
and  "Coffee  and  india  rubber  culture  in  Mexico." 

An  advance  issue,  under  an  admirably  descriptive  title,  of  the 
first  pages  of  Sr.  Romero's  very  poorly  named  "Mexico  and  the 
United  States,"  in  which  these  pages  are  inserted  without  note 
or  comment,  an  exceedingly  valuable  compendium  upon  the 
country  of  Mexico  as  it  was  known  to  the  Mexican  minister  to 
the  United  States.— Soley.

Romero,  Matias,   1837-1898.     Mexico  and  the    United   States;   a 
study  of  subjects  affecting  their  political,   commercial  and 
social   relations,    made   with   view   to   their   promotion ;    by 
Matias   Romero.     Volume   1.     N.   Y.,    and   Lond.,   Putnams, 
1898.     xxxv  p.,  1  1.,  759  p.     map,  facsim.,  2  diagr.     26cm. 
No  more  published.     Complete  in  1  volume. 
.  .  .  The  historical  portion  of  this  bulky  volume  consists  of  re 
visions  and  enlargements  of  articles  originally  printed  in  maga 
zines.     Although   frequently   characterized  by   the   sophistry   of 
logic  which  assumes  the  truth  of  stated  premises,  this  volume  is 
probably  as  good  a  work  as  exists  in  English  on  the  significance 
of  the  history  of  the  19th  century  Mexico. — Soley.
